Madison Jr. High students write notes to Edith
“I’m so glad we could find Gerda! Ever since we started our search, I’ve been moved to tears and even some of happiness.” Danielle
I hope reuniting with Gerda can make up for at least a little bit of all the grief you had to face. Wishing you all the happiness in the world, you certainly deserve it.” Priya
“I hope that finding your friend, Gerda, we will be able to give a piece of your life back that was wrongly taken from you.” Cameron
“I know we can never erase the wrongs Hitler committed, but we can bring happiness into the lives of those who were wronged. I hope this will ease the pain from the past, if only slightly, and perhaps inspire others to do the same. I know this is probably something that will stay with me the rest of my life.” Maria
“I’m so glad we helped you be reunited with Gerda. you must have missed her so much and I’m happy we were able to help.” Katie
